Get chrome, not chromium
It's not a better browser, does not work with speech-dispatcher reliably, but does at times, but using
chromevox, not orca.
It is very good to havew as an alternativ e though, and does work better on an occasiional site than does
firefox.
Some of the menus and other interface bits are rather different, and perhaps less intuitive for those used to
firefox, and some other browsers.
I always put chrome with the chromevox extension so it speaks on my Linux machines, but use it much less than
firefox.
Some of the same ppl who make firefox extensions make versions for chrome, but at times they look and or act
a bit differently. There's no webvisum for
chrome or chromium.
As for the flash version, it does not correspond.
I don't know of flash working better with chrome than with other Linux browsers, but can't say for sure if
it's better worse, or mostly the same as
fortunately I don't have to use much flash these days, and don't remember the last time I had trouble with
flash with firefox.

Ok, I just got this running and I don't have it installed yet. The only thing I can find that causes any
problem for me is chromium. How do I get the totally silent web browser to speak and how do I use
chromium? Is it similar to firefox. I see that it is using a later version of flash and I wonder if it is
a better browser than firefox.
Thanks.

You're right Luke. Antergos uses an installer called Cnchi, which
Manjaro's Thus was forked from initially. Since Cnchi is still in
development for Antergos, it can either be forked again and ported over
to Manjaro or patched for Antergos to get rid of the last accessibility
bugs. It will certainly be easier than writing a new Arch installer from
scratch, or even writing a graphical component for something like AUI.
Personally, my vote is for trying to patch away the accessibility bugs
in Cnchi as it is in Antergos, because Antergos, rather than being a
complete fork of Arch, starts with pure Arch and just adds its own
minimal repository, which could actually be removed to make an Antergos
system a pure Arch system if desired by the user.
